National Front for Liberation

The National Front for Liberation (NFL) was a Syrian rebel coalition founded on 28 May 2018 during the Syrian Civil War. It united 11 rebel factions (including the Sham Legion and Free Idlib Army) in northwestern Syria, and it was later joined by Ahrar ash-Sham, Harakat Nour al-Din al-Zenki, Suqour al-Sham Brigade, and Jaysh al-Ahrar. The NFL had a strength of 70,000 fighters, and it was active in Idlib Governorate, Hama Governorate, Aleppo Governorate, and Latakia Governorate in northwestern Syria. The NFL was backed by Turkey and the Syrian National Army, while it was opposed to the Syrian government, the Syrian Democratic Forces, and Tahrir al-Sham.
